I did have a few nerves but I soon got over them after we got started. Even though the shoot itself only lasted about half an hour I thoroughly enjoyed myself and would love to do something similar again. I&#8217;d say the most enjoyable part of this assignment was being able to actually stand and pose in front of the cameras instead of the bathroom mirror. It felt a bit surreal, but pretty awesome.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;For this assignment I was asked to bring a couple of outfits &#8211; one casual and one smarter choice. It was a shoot intended for 3D use so there were cameras coming from all angles. I had to do various poses ranging from simply standing still and looking straight ahead, to doing &#8216;a robot pose&#8217;.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\n&#8220;When the shoot finished the cameraman told me I had \u2018the model look\u2019, which obviously boosted my confidence a huge amount. I&#8217;d never really considered myself to be good enough to be model material, hence why I was so excited about this assignment, but that was definitely an encouraging note. The experience was fantastic for me. I would definitely recommend it to someone if the chance arose. Even if it&#8217;s only a small assignment, it&#8217;s all experience and will undoubtedly give you a platform from which to build. If I were to advise someone in this industry, from my limited knowledge, I would point to the fact that joining an agency is a great way to get noticed. I myself have been guilty of being casual and sitting back when it came to updating my e-portfolio and pursuing work, so I would advise people not to follow suit. Having enjoyed my assignment so much, it has inspired me to be more on-the-ball in future. The reason for joining the agency was to test the water and seewhether I would actually be good enough to be successful as a model. I&#8217;m very ambitious and would love to go as far as I can in this industry, working my way up from the smaller low-key assignments is a process that I think would offer me great experience.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.modelsdirect.com\/locations\/worldwide.html\">becoming a model<\/a> like Tom, or an actor, singer, dancer, entertainer or musician, you can apply at Talent Management&#8217;s dedicated modelling site <a href=\"http:\/\/www.modelsdirect.com\" target=\"_blank\">Models Direct<\/a>, where you\u2019ll also find a range of information on modelling, acting, dancing, singing, entertaining and music, designed to help you when choosing a modelling agency.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Before the Models Direct shoot I was really looking forward to it.
